Good morning. Scientists are warning that global heating could mean storms like the ones that have flooded parts of Australia over recent days could become much more regular occurrences. The UK prime minister, Boris Johnson’s future is in doubt. And after his Monday Wimbledon success, Nick Kyrgios is being called before court.
The UK government is in turmoil after two cabinet ministers sensationally resigned citing a loss of confidence in Johnson, putting the prime minister’s future in doubt. In their resignation letters, Rishi Sunak and Sajid Javid pointed to a lack of grip in Downing Street, with Sunak saying the public expected government to be conducted “properly, competently and seriously”. Johnson apologised on Tuesday evening for appointing Chris Pincher as deputy chief whip, despite belatedly admitting having known that Pincher was found to have behaved inappropriately in 2019.
